@sofie1212, I have the impression that you are in Hong Kong. If so, you have many choices.
I often encourage the use of ginger to drive TCM cold, wind and dampness evils because it is available in most places and it is simple to understand. It is not perfect. As one other reader points out, it can attract heat evils. It is spicy hot, so some people may not like it. There are also people whose yin qi is so overused to a point that they have hot TCM symptoms and yet any more TCM cooling agents would further weaken them. Each person’s condition is unique and what I am sharing are only some very basic common sense.
If you feel that tea’s cool TCM would affect you, you may be weak in yin. The best thing is to find an experienced TCM practitioner to regain your balance. If that’s too much for you, include things like jujube (紅棗), wolfberries (杞子), yellow leader (北芪), and occasional chen-pi (陳皮) in your beverage or diet. These are are mild yin-tonic for supporting your fire energy. Some of them you can find powdered small packs for convenience. As you may know, nothing beats the real thing, but having the powdered ones is better than not having them.
Find suppliers with reputation and who sell good quality ones. I trust only Eu Yan Sang.
